IPC: B60W50/14
Filed: 2020-04-20
Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for an audio assistant in an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle. In one aspect the informational audio assistant receives a first set of data from a vehicle sensor and identifies an object or condition using the data from the vehicle sensor. Audio is generated representative of a perceived danger of an object or condition. A second set of data from the vehicle sensor subsystem is received and the informational audio assistant determines whether an increased danger exists based on a comparison of the first set of data to the second set of data. The informational audio assistant will apply a sound profile to the generated audio based on the increased danger.

Title: Multi-axis mems mirror parking
Inventor: CHENG HSING
IPC: G02B26/08
Filed: 2020-12-08
Abstract: The present disclosure provides an improved method of parking a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) mirror in an array of MEMS mirrors, wherein the method protects against single high voltage channel failures in a driver. Two separate voltages are applied to each MEMS mirror to move and park the mirror out of a camera sensor field of view in a servo system. For example, a first voltage may be applied in a positive X direction and a second voltage may be applied in a positive Y direction. This will then move the mirror in a diagonal direction. In the event one of the high voltage channels fail, the mirror will still be parked and outside of the camera sensor field of view. Using two voltages, every mirror will have 4 possible parking positions. In the event of a high voltage channel failure, the servo system can park a mirror affected by the failure in an opposite corner. Moreover, if 2-axis parking is not feasible, such as if both Y axes fail, the mirror can use single-voltage parking.
